Interns
-
Sounds amazing Place to learn new things
-
Some of the OSes expected to be one the lab: CentOS, OpenSuse, Ubuntu, FreeBSD, Dragonfly, Solaris, Windows, OpenBSD.
Plus appliance systems like VyOS, pfSense and Untangle.
-
And hopefully, eventually, all four major hypervisors: vSphere, HyperV, XenServer and KVM. Will be a while before we can get KVM added.
Will do Zones, Jails and similar types too.

Awesome, thanks. Though I do need to complete my current migration before I'll be able to learn anything or help with anything new. with some luck, a week to two at the most and I think I'll be back to something close to normal.

what exactly is the intent of this? pulling in some new emps possibly down the line?
-
The intent:
- Sharing knowledge
- Promoting our Lab and the equipment we use from different vendors
- Possible new employees (next generation minions)
- Getting to play and some amount of torture

Real internships, actually working in a lab, not a production environment.
-
These might be silly questions but is this meant to be a full time position and local? Or a remote "after hours" ordeal?
Sounds like a great opportunity to learn and tinker! Best of luck.
-
This is for whoever is looking we have had a couple IT pros ask to be included

We have plans of the lab manager being primarily off hours. A few people will be needed physically to be local due to the need for rack and stack. But the vast majority of projects could be done remotely.
-
Is this going to be an group thing if enough people are interested in a particular thing?
-
It will be interesting to see how a group works on projects like these, and great experience too.
-
Yes and at the young age they will learn how to work and interact with IT pro. (Senior Level)
yes Working with Senior Level IT pro should consider as a great experience. -
there will be a bit of both group work and on their own work. Being able to do some project management for their group lab work is an important business skill no matter what you decide to do in life.
-
Intern management. It's like a promotion inside the intern group.

NTG is looking for 3 willing interns to work in our lab environment.
As opposed to an unwilling intern?
Did you check your local community college? They may have a degree path that requires an internship.

"Local" is one of the issues. NTG HQ is very remote. The "local" community college doesn't have any programs that would directly correlate. There are colleges farther away, but they are pretty far. Being rural has major disadvantages.
